Lilian Moore

I left my head
somewhere
today.
Put it down for
just
a minute.
Under the
table?

If you catch a firefly
and keep it in a jar
You may find that
you have lost
A tiny star.

If you let it go then,
back into the night,
You may see it

I made a sand castle.
In rolled the sea.
"All sand castles
belong to me—
to me,"
said the sea.

I dug sand tunnels.
In flowed the sea.
